CYLINDER BORE
NOTE: The cylinder bores should be measured at
normal room temperature, 21°C (70°F).
The cylinder walls should be checked for out-of-round
and taper with Tool C119 cylinder bore gauge, or
equivalent (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - SPECIFICATIONS).
If the cylinder walls are badly scuffed or scored, the
cylinder block should be replaced, and new pistons
and rings fitted.
Measure the cylinder bore at three levels in directions
A and B. Top measurement should be 10 mm (3/8 in.)
down and bottom measurement should be 10 mm (3/8
in.) up from bottom of bore. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE -
SPECIFICATIONS).
